Kenwood House, Hampstead Lane, London Borough of Camden : Tree-Ring Analysis of Timbers from Wood Pond
Author(s): Alison Arnold, Robert Howard
Seven samples were taken from timbers recovered during works undertaken to strengthen the dam between Wood Pond and Thousand Pound Pond. Three of these samples contained recurring bands of very narrow rings which prevented accurate measurement. Dendrochronological analysis was undertaken on the remaining three oak samples and one conifer sample. This resulted in two of the oak samples grouping and being combined to form KENHSQ01, a site sequence of 90 rings. Attempts to date KENHSQ01, the ungrouped oak sample, and the conifer sample were unsuccessful, and all timbers remain undated.
